Had my first chemo session on monday 10 Sept which entailed 2 different chemo's. On Monday I felt fine but Tues & Wed had the side effects of nausea & fatigue come and visit and I literally felt like i had been hit by a bus. By thursday though I was feeling much better and since then have been getting progressively better till today Sunday. Feeling great at present with a great weekend behind me ! Went to the driving range with Oliver this pm which was very entertaining! Cant wait for the warmth of summer to come as I really feel the cold at present. Tomorrow I have some blood tests done and then another bout of chemo which only entails the 1 type (not both as last Monday). I have been told that it will not be as severe as last week which is re-assuring.
The really cool thing is that the pains I have have had in my chest which alerted me to this thing in the first place have subsided A LOT which leads me to think that with all the chemo, supplements, alternative treatment & approach, diet and my visualisation of it dissapearing have all taken their toll ! I have not taken any pain killers for 2 days and am really feeling good.
Amazing how good you can feel with no hint of a hangover anywhere in site. Watched the rugby with a ginger beer!
Go the Bokke !
Later

Doug - glad to hear the first step against this horrible scourge has been taken and that it was not totally debilitating to you. Still being able to enjoy the close of the weekend cracking little white balls - nothing like keeping up that old swing!
All the best for the next standoff! Soon the score will be similar to that recently cracked up against the once mighty England.
All our love - Weavs
